Here is my version of bucket forks. I got some towmotor forks for free and went from there. They work real good for lifting logs. The only thing I don't like is I had a pallet box full of wood on rough terrain, a little tippy. Can't wait to use them for brush.

I like your setup.
If I had not gotten Kubota forks at a good deal I would have made something similar.

Nice work Tom, very creative. I bet they are easy to take off and on. I could use them this morning, I need to get a 110 gal sprayer off the back of my pickup, have no forks so I have to wait until my neighbor can help me.

The pin is 1" rod. The tubes on top of the forks and the center support
is 1 1/8" id heavy wall pipe. I figured I'd go bigger on the pipe in case I
bend the pin.
